“djembe” drum translates to “everyone gather together in peace.”

~ Meet Suzie, Your Drum Circle Facilitator

A fun, dynamic, immersive experience designed to create a sense of unity, full self expression and belonging.

This offering was born from a life moment that captured my heart.

While supporting the resort in creating meaningful experiences for guests, I was invited to share new ideas. One vision came through clearly…drum circles by the bonfire! Scott, the activities director immediately felt the resonance and fully supported bringing it to life.

This inspiration was rooted in a powerful memory from Asheville, North Carolina, where I experienced a community drum circle that deeply moved me. There was something undeniable in the rhythm… it drew me in, invited me to participate, and created a sense of belonging and oneness that I never forgot.

Once the experience was approved, I devoted myself to learning from seasoned facilitators, and over time, I developed my own unique style of guiding drum circles, blending rhythm, breath, presence, and connection.

What unfolds within these circles is always beautiful and often surprising.

Again and again, participants discover something within themselves they didn’t know was there. Without words, a deep connection forms ~ beneath the night sky, beside the warmth of the fire, surrounded by rhythm, breath, and the quiet magic of nature.

Some of the most memorable, heart-opening moments I’ve witnessed were made possible through the simple, powerful act of coming together in a drum circle.

Sometimes, the deepest connection happens without words.

Step into the rhythm. Join the circle.

“One of the most powerful aspects of drumming and the reason people have done it since the beginning of being human is that it changes people's consciousness. Through rhythmic repetition of ritual sounds, the body, the brain, and the nervous system are energized and transformed. When a group of people play a rhythm for an extended period of time, their brain waves become entrained to the rhythm and they have a shared brain wave state. The longer the drumming goes on, the more powerful the entrainment becomes.” ~ Layne Redmond

Drum circles cultivate sacred spaces where soul-felt conversations occur through rhythmic sounds, natural movements, synchronized heart beats, and conscious breathing. As a community we attune to the Medicine Of Sound, Mother Earth’s Elements, the land, creatures, each other, as well as the beat of something greater than ourselves.

"When you take your drum to a rhythm circle and play it with your community, healing happens. If you come and drum, the healing is compounded because everyone is putting their spirit into their drum, and their hearts are open. You get and give a rhythmical massage that is compounded by the number of people in the circle and the energy they are sharing with each other.” ~ Arthur Hull
